Royal Opera House » Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall visit High House Production Park in Thurrock2015-07-31T13:08:37ZWordPressChris Shipmanhttp://www.roh.org.uk/?p=270062014-05-19T15:31:58Z2014-01-31T12:36:41Z

This was the first building to open on the Park and the ROH has run a learning and community engagement programme in the area since 2007 which has seen more than 40,000 people get involved from the local area.

The royal visitors met staff, students, members of the community and the Manoukian family and saw scenery being painted for Christopher Wheeldon's new Royal Ballet production of The Winter's Tale.

The Prince joked that he'd gladly offer his services to the Thurrock Community Chorus but doubted that his voice would be up to the standard required.
